From incubation to intimation to illumination. The creative evolution of an artist’s life.

A Journey in Timelessness

I am not sure about this terrain

But I must have crossed

The chartered solar space

Beyond the peripheral sky of thoughts

And any extreme question so rationale

Many new celestial idols still tease me

With an ever growing backdrop of the space

And it’s rising silence

When I look back

Ah! I see the discovered toys

Revolving feebly in the space

Zigzag like a bullock cart wheel

Here, I see many new suns

Still smiling and moons mocking

At my petty vessel with a useless compass

A Journey that leads nowhere

Beyond mortal frames

Conscience and science of simulations

I still sustain my breath

And I know I can’t retrospect like a planet

My cosmic tent is filled with pure silence

And in the timelessness

Let me float watching many suns and moons

My vessel has no compass,

Ah…This journey is so enchanting…
